Book Synopsis Romantic Women Poets, 1770-1838 by : Andrew Ashfield
Book excerpt: Although overshadowed by their male contemporaries, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, Shelley and Byron, the women Romantic poets of the late 18th and early 19th centuries made a significant contribution to Romanticism. Nearly 40 poets are represented in this collection, including Elizabeth Barrett and Anna Seward, providing a comprehensive picture of female poetic activity from the earliest development of Romanticism to the advent of the Victorian era. The volume includes textual and thematic notes.
